When asked about Kamal Haasan’s Indian 2, Rajinikanth shared that he had seen the film and thought it was really "good." Regarding director Lokesh Kanagaraj’s Coolie, Thalaivar mentioned, "Coolie’s shooting is progressing well." 

The media also inquired about the release of his eagerly awaited film Vettaiyan. Rajinikanth hinted at a possible delay, stating, "The release date hasn’t been finalized yet. Dubbing work is still ongoing."


Is Vettaiyan delayed?

Vettaiyan is likely to have been postponed since Rajinikanth earlier confirmed a Dussehra release during his June trip to the Himalayas.

Back then, he told some yogis during his trip, "Vettaiyan will release for Dussehra. I have completed my portions, although the rest of the cast is still filming. The movie should come out around October 10." 

However, he did not say the same during his recent interaction with the media at the Chennai airport. On another note, the veteran actor was supposed to start shooting for Coolie in June, however, that film also seems to be delayed.
